Rabita Baku
Serbian spiker Sanja Starovic – who is playing for Rabita for the fifth consecutive year – set the tone in the early phases of the opening set before Agel PROSTEJOV could fight back via some good play contributed by Brazilian Juliana Gomes. However, middle blocker Foluke Akinradewo and setter Katarzyna Skorupa were able to restore Rabita’s supremacy and the home girls did finally pocket the first set with the score of 25-17.
Agel PROSTEJOV caught an excellent start in the second set going up by three points before Rabita got back on track helped by Starovic and the incredible defense actions by libero Brenda Castillo. Rabita got up by two at the second technical time-out (16:14) and that small cushion was maintained up to the end (25-23).
Rabita stormed out to a terrific 9:1 in set 3 and dominated the scene anchored by the attacks scored by Natasa Krsmanovic and Dobriana Rabadzhieva.
